I was discussing it with a friend of mine, and I threw out the following idea that seemed to sum up the film pretty well.
The Passion is like a magnification mirror - you take out what you went in with, enhanced by ten. If you had anti-Semitic feelings inside going in, they were on the outside coming out. Same for people alert for - the uncharitable would say "paranoid of" - hints of anti-Semitism. So on and so forth.
